Divilskin¹⁸⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: H Cobden| T: P F Nicholls

3/1

€245,000 purchase following success only start in points. Modest form at best in a couple of bumper outings last season but he's in excellent hands and could well prove a different proposition now sights are set on hurdles.

Form: 1/45-

I Got Stung¹⁷⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: C Gethings| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls

10/1

Modest form in a bumper and novice hurdle this spring, finding things happening too quickly kept to 2m when fifth of 9 in a Ffos Las novice in April. Yard know this family well but he's a likely type for later on/longer trips.

Form: 65-

Kamsinas¹⁸⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: P J Brennan| T: F O'Brien| D

5/6

Successful sole outing in Irish points and quickly over bumper debut mishap when off the mark at Kelso (16.2f) in February. Creditable third under a penalty at Huntingdon (15.8f) when last seen in April and one of the likelier types now sights are set on hurdling.

Form: 1/B13-

Speaker Thomas^t1¹⁶⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Kielan Woods| T: B PaulingWS

15/2

Point winner who didn't offer much under Rules for John Joseph Hanlon, pulled up in hunter chase event at Punchestown in April. Had wind op ahead of this yard/hurdling debut but he's likely best watched. Tongue strap on 1st time.

Form: F/3F61P-

Kooky¹⁸⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: David Noonan| T: Mrs J Williams

16/1

Encouraging start when third in a Huntingdon bumper (15.8f) in January and shaped like a stayer when filling same spot on hurdles debut at Chepstow in April, staying on again from 2 out. Open to improvement but 2½m may well suit ideally moving forward.

Form: 33-

R S Ambush⁵⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: Lee Edwards| T: Dr R D P Newland

16/1

Fell sole start in points but offered something to work on in a couple of spins in maiden hurdles in Ireland this summer. Type new yard do well with but handicaps could be more his bag.

Forecasts

Kamsinas (5/6), Divilskin (3/1), New Order (10/3), Speaker Thomas (15/2), I Got Stung (10/1), R S Ambush (16/1), Kooky (16/1)

The betting should prove useful in assessing the chances of a few, but KAMSINAS boasted a positive profile in bumpers and could be the way to go now hurdling. Fellow hurdling debutant Divilskin is another to consider given his connections, whilst Charlie Longsdon's New Order is another to note.
